The Haus der Bayerischen Geschichte is presenting the exhibition "Weltenbrand. Bavaria in the First World War" as an intervention within its permanent exhibition. For the first time, numerous newly acquired objects from this period are on display.
The exhibition sheds light on the role of the House of Wittelsbach in the First World War, tells of the harrowing fates of soldiers and shows how the war was also fought from the air for the first time. Militarization also reached children's bedrooms during this period. But despite propaganda and slogans of perseverance, the home front begins to crumble as the war continues. Revolution is in the air.
